This is a family, not my family, spaghetti sauce recipe passes down from a grandmother in Italy - I hear it is the best one you will ever cook. I have 50 + gallons of tomatoes in the freezer. Cant wait. Ingredients 12-15 fresh tomatoes (peeled, chopped and blended in a food processor) 4 cloves of garlic (pressed or chopped finely) A bunch of dried basil (probably 3-5 Tbsp) A bunch of black pepper (probably 1-2 tsp) 1 Tbsp of sugar (optional - if you want the sauce a little sweeter) 2 Tbsp olive oil Minced Green Peppers (optional) Instructions Heat the olive oil in a 5+ qt. pot over medium heat, and add the chopped or pressed garlic. Heat for one to two minutes, making sure not to burn the garlic, then add all the tomatoes, black pepper, basil and sugar. Stirring often, bring to a low boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 hours stirring often. For the first half of the simmer time, do so with the pot uncovered, then cover. This will make the equivalent to 4-5 jars of sauce, and the cost is probably about half (and it tastes way better)
